About the Item
THE CATS PATH HOME, Original Contemporary Abstract Expressionist Painting
40" x 30" x 2" (HxWxD) Oil on Canvas
Working in the style of abstract expressionism, artist William O'Connor's use of gestural brushwork and a vibrant color palette are reminiscent to that of Hans Hofmann. The orange and yellow tones are lively and uplifting. Additions of purple, red, green, and black contours create added dimension and visual interest in this decorative abstract expressionist oil painting.
Artist Commentary:
Our adopted pet cats give endless mystery and enjoyment. We know that there can sometimes be interactions outside when our fur babies cross paths with fox, bobcats, raccoons, skunks, and bear. We don't always know where they have been when they come home, nor where they might go when standing at the door to be opened. Sometimes we do know what they have been doing out there when a dead rat comes home with them!
About the Artist:
Beginning life in the heartland of America gave William O’Connor a sense of wonderment in the changing landscape and sky. The distinct seasons in Nebraska left indelible images for him to remember as a painter. The inspirations for his work often come from the recall of childhood memories in Lincoln and later on, life in Southern California. After exciting teenage years, there came a hitch in the US Navy serving his country. More images came from days on the open sea and fascinating foreign places. Subjects of his paintings may include: ancient myths; connections with animals and wildlife; historical places; as well as industrial images. The style and technique of his work evolved from the influence of Modernism and Abstract Expressionism as seen by the masters such as Willem de Kooning and Richard Diebenkorn. This type of painting allows William the freedom of expression especially with vibrant color, invented shapes, and fascinating details, to reveal his inner experience. Series are very prevalent in his work as well as triptychs, diptychs, and individual themes. While attending Otis Art Institute, LA Valley College, and Pasadena City College, William gained a fine art background during his studies of figure drawing, print making, sculpture, art history, ceramics, and other fundamental art courses. This experience served to drive him further into a deliberate pathway of eclectic study from several different institutions and by various professional artists. A great many afternoons during “closed to the public” hours, were spent studying and drawing from the Master’s paintings hanging in the Norton Simon Museum in Pasadena. From this formidable background in fine art came the choice to concentrate solely on the traditional medium of oil paint.
